"My companions and I came to Kashyyyk to disrupt Imperial supply lines...so, who are you looking for?"

"He's a freedom fighter?"
"He'sTHE freedom fighter. A symbol of the Wookiee resistance, striking at the Empire from the Shadowlands...What do you want with Tarfful?"
"Jedi business."

―Saw Gerrera and Cal Kestis on what brought them to Kashyyyk^[1]

TheLiberation on Kashyyyk was a mission undertaken during thereign of theGalactic Empire byJedi Padawan Cal Kestis to theplanet Kashyyyk to findTarfful. Whilst searching for theWookiee chieftain, Kestis came acrossSaw Gerrera and hisPartisans and agreed to help free captured Wookiees from theImperial Refinery.^[1]

Prelude[]

After being exposed as a Jedi in hiding, padawanCal Kestis and former knightCere Junda went on a mission to rebuild the Jedi Order. Doing research on theZeffonians, they needed to find an old friend ofEno Cordova, a Wookiee chief namedTarfful, for information.^[1]

The battle[]

Assault on the refinery[]

Kestis and BD-1 about to infiltrate the AT-AT and take command of the walker.

Saw Gerrera lead hisPartisans to aid the Wookiees there. The planet was blockaded by severalImperial-class Star Destroyers. During an attack on an Imperial landing pad, the Empire deployedTIE/ln space superiority starfighters,AT-ATs,AT-STs, andImperial Troop Transports. Cal's group arrived in the middle of the battle and decided to help. He hijacked an AT-AT and destroyed numerous Imperial forces. After securing anImperial Landing pad, the AT-AT was disabled by a crashingZeta-class Heavy Cargo Shuttle. Saw and his forces met with Cal's group, and Cal agreed to help them raid on the nearbyImperial Refinery on his search for Tarfful.^[1]

Saw lead his soldiers to attack the facility head-on and captured the cutters to cut into the refinery while Cal snuck inside to free the prisoners, fighting through Stormtroopers and local wildlife, such asWyyyschokk. Going through the facility, Cal ran into a fewPurge troopers waiting for him, but was able to dispatch them. After freeing theWookiee prisoners, he rendezvoused with Saw's forces on the roof. Despite being surrounded, Cal bested the Imperial forces attacking him and Saw claimed victory over the Empire. He then offered Cal to join his Partisans, but Cal had to finish his own mission.Mari Kosan met with Cal and agrees to find Tarfful for him. Cal then left forZeffo while Saw's forces occupy the refinery.^[1]

The search for Tarfful[]

During Cal's imprisonment under theHaxion Brood syndicate, theSecond Sister andNinth Sister brought Imperial reinforcements and nearly destroyed the Partisans looking for Cal. The Partisans retreated into theShadowlands, before Gerrera eventually fled offworld with much of his forces while Mari and others stayed to continue helping the Wookiees.^[1]

Aftermath[]

"So, I heard you fought the Empire on Kashyyyk."
"Yeah."
"Hijacked a Walker and broke open an Imperial prison camp single-handed."

―Bode Akuna and Cal Kestis^[3]

Although the Partisans had to retreated after Imperial reinforcements arrived, the mission to free the enslaved Wookiees at the refinery was a success.^[4]

Five years after the conflict at the refinery, Cal Kestis' heroic act was remembered byBode Akuna, who during a conversation with Kestis, mentioned how he stole an Empire's walker during the confrontation and freed the imprisoned Wookiees.^[3]
